Arizona Legislature voices support for “Ghost Army” Congressional Gold Medal

3/30/2018

The Arizona legislature has passed a concurrent resolution asking Congress award a Congressional Gold Medal to the members of the 23rd Headquarters Special Troops The resolution, HCM2008,  was introduced by State Representative Richard Andrade. 

Three Arizonians Albert Files, Glenn Uhles and Harold Laynor served in this unique unit.
 
Legislation is now pending in the US House (HR 2701) and US Senate (S 1256) to award this unit, and a sister unit that operated in Italy, a Congressional Gold Medal.  The resolution passed by the Arizona House and Senate urges the state’s Congressional Delegation to support this bill.
 
We are very excited that the Arizona has become the first state legislature to go on record supporting the Ghost Army Gold Medal bill. We hope it will help convince Arizona's congressional delegation to get on board and support this effort!
